Thank you so much for your reply. I was able to find the hammered one yesterday. I haven’t received it yet, so I have not seen it in person other than SA pictures. I was just wondering if I should of gone for the guilloche one?.
A hammered one?? May I ask from which boutique? It's at the top of my wishlist!
Of course! At the Beverly Hills one.
Super casual with 10 motif YG Onyx and matching bracelet!
Here are some shots with my Guilloché from back in 2019. I haven’t been wearing it as much as the weight is quite heavy for me 
10 motif is great! So much fun mix and match also casual enough to wear any day.
Added the 10 Motif BA for my birthday this year 
. Wore it with my Guilloché last night and received compliments from strangers who were not familiar with VCA (was asked where my necklace was from).

Coming back to this thread since I got so many recommendations to go with pearls so I thought I'd do a quick update. (Probably not going long into this since this is VCA thread after all)This being the case, I vote that you should try the six motif magic. I love the GMP version, and it’s the only alhambra I wear. I clicked on the link you provided, and I was drawn to post #6
in exchange for all this advice, we want your action pics bc we are nosy and curious lolahave fun deciding !
Is VCA 10 motifs necklace good for wedding?
I was considering to buy a VAC 10 motifs necklace for my wedding. I thought that would be the best one for matching my strapless wedding gown. However, when i went to the store, the SA tried to convince me to buy a diamond necklace instead of the 10 motifs. It's not about the price issue because...forum.purseblog.com
it may be a bit too OT, but both the six motif magic and pearls can be casual; theyre not just dressy. With shorts, athleta travel cargo pants (the middle pic is literally my airplane outfit), and a t shirt and sneakers.

I tried pearls for the first time in my life a few weeks ago, and they actually didn't feel out of place on me. The iridescence is beautiful. South sea pearls are probably out of budget for now for something I cannot really wear daily (lifestyle is still way too casual for this), so I will probably go with akoya.
Now I am debating between two options:
a simple strand necklace vs. a convertible one.
The convertible one has a diamond clip that can be clipped anywhere so I can make it into a really long strand necklace as well. It's absolutely beautiful in person, but I'm not sure if simpler is the way to go here for the wedding.
Beautiful ! Your pearl earrings are gorgeous as well. May I ask where you got them please ? Thank you !
